Two of the few known examples of hyper-Kähler varieties can be described as varieties of zeroes of a general section of a homogeneous vector bundle over a Grassmannian. Precisely, one is the zero locus of a section of the third symmetric power of the dual of the tautological bundle on \(\mathbb G(1,5)\), the Grassmannian of lines in \(\mathbb P^5\) (Beauville-Donagi). The other one is the zero locus of a section of the third anti-symmetric power of the dual of the tautological bundle on \(\mathbb G(5,9)\) (Debarre-Voisin). Both varieties have dimension \(4\). In the article under review, the author gives the complete classification of the fourfolds with trivial canonical bundle which arise as zero loci of general sections of homogeneous, completely reducible bundles over ordinary, symplectic or orthogonal Grassmannians. He gets that the only hyper-Kähler varieties in these lists are the two examples quoted above. All the other varieties in the lists are Calabi-Yau, with two exceptions: the abelian fourfold parametrizing the \(3\)-spaces in \(\mathbb P^9\) contained in the complete intersection of two quadrics, and a non-connected fourfold \(Y\), with \(\chi(\mathcal O_Y)=4\). Its connected components are two isomorphic Calabi-Yau fourfolds, complete intersections in an orthogonal Grassmannian. The proof relies on a suitable extension of the method of \textit{O. Küchle} [Math. Z. 218, No. 4, 563--575 (1995; Zbl 0826.14024)]. The article contains also a similar complete classification for varieties of dimension \(2\) and \(3\).
